Even though the author had a character who was "Dean of the English Department," I let that lack of academic knowledge slide and enjoyed the rest of the book. (  ) sejent | Nov 19, 2009 |  A Very funny look at trying to make friends after moving to a new town more than 500 miles away from the close knit group of friends it took more than 30 years to assemble. I laughed so hard I cried. A must read for anyone who has been publicly embarrassed and forced to live it down. (  ) AuntJha | Apr 8, 2009 | Following her academic husband to a new job in a small college town in Washington, Maye is confronted by the challenges of making new friends and, after a series of missteps, decides to enter the annual Sewer Pipe Queen pageant, a popular local tradition. This book was entertaining, but a little "over the top". The situations that Maye found herself in funny, but they weren't always believable. The author used a lot of similes and metaphors which slowed the pace somewhat. The resolution of the story was good and I didn't see it coming, but the very end of the book was a real let-down. I enjoyed it and had fun listening to it, but it's fairly forgettable. ( ) lrobe190 | Apr 2, 2009 | A funny title does not necessarily make a funny book. But it certainly does in this case. “There's A (Slight) Chance I Might Be Going To Hell” is a very funny book. But more than that, it is a book with some great characters, a bit of a mystery, a great story and one that will keep you entertained from cover to cover. for the full review... http://caitesdayatthebeach.blogspot.c... (  ) caitemaire | Jan 19, 2009 | If you're a fan of Laurie Nataro you might be disappointed in this book. In reading this novel that reflects many of the experiences that she has written about in her past memoirs, you'll find yourself thinking, "this was funnier in the Flaming Tantrum book."
